Absolute masterclass put on by Dan and Dave here - Meco was so set on being quiet and the Big 2 pried it out of him. Truly a HOF performance, MJ and Scotty-esque

I get that they also have to be funny on it but Marty doesn’t know enough about college basketball to be funny.

[@zygamantas]

Marty sucks. His stupidity was funny at first but now it’s annoying.

[@oopsiedoodles]

They're both terrible. Rico thinks he's Hubie Brown because he knows the name of two ball screens.

[@andrewboyce7268]

I just feel bad for Jake. I easily see Jake calling big NCAA games down the road, he really loves CBB. I've watched maybe 1 episode of that show and it was brutal.

[@daveydeadlegs7448]

Marty was only initially interesting because he portrayed himself as mentally handicapped (Hard R word). They ended up being a schtick/lie. He’s fake. Just like his teeth, his voice, his fake gambling. A total fraud and untenable. So many streams I’ve had to turn off because Marty just ruins the vibe

[@whileimhere.6177]

[@connorjames8807]

I'm quite impartial to Rico...but he has to be thankful to Dave to still have a job...if anyone else in the world had thrown a full high noon at a coworkers head, they would have been fired immediatley no questions asked...that being said they do push him sometimes because they know they will get the reaction they want for the cameras. IDK

Yes thats their schtick WHEN they are on livestreams... then the cameras turn off and dave n dan go back to normal and rico takes it personally and acts like the victim for the next 2 months

[@CarlBrain493]

Rico pushes EVERYBODY though. Thats the whole point, he dishes it out non-stop to anyone for any made up bullshit reason then cries harder than anyone else when he gets pushed back. He gets so much support and special treatment for the literal biggest figures at the company and still thinks hes the vitim. Its on nobody but himself. Hes the epitome of that childhood bully who punches down on people, then when someone bigger gives him the same treatment he starts bawling.

[@hookster999]

The issue is never really the issue with Rico, he is the issue -- remember last August it was something about which days he needed to come in to work , then we had a seating issue on the other show , and now it’s that he is being picked on too much is the issue; Portnoy is correct about the victim hood nonsense and also that when Rico does this BS it is handcuffing Dave and puts him in a box cause he can’t give preferential treatment on camera - when Rico runs out of Rico Cards to play , every time he always turns to the Victim Card to play
